General Miles is thoroughly conversant with all these facts, and himself says that our situa- tion is extremely critical. There are less than 600 soldiers here now all told. The party sent to Wounded Knee to bury the dead Indians, re- turned late last night. They found and buried eighty-four bucks and sixty-three squaws and children. It was also found that five had been buried by the Indians. In addition to this total of 152 we have heard now and then of others who have been carried away by hostile scouts, etc., sufficient to swell the number of dead Indians as a result of the battle of Wounded Knee to 200, with several others yet to die in the improvised hospital here.
